Kershaw Misdirect Pocket Knife, $28 (was $38) on Amazon
Kershaw has been making high-quality knives since 1974, and the Misdirect is a standout example. This compact folding blade is ideally suited for everyday use in all kinds of tasks, from whittling wood to cutting boxes and more. It has a small footprint—when closed, it measures just 4 inches long—but its frame conceals a 2.9-inch blade. The Misdirect has a flipper tab for smooth opening and a frame lock to keep the blade secure and steady when in use. On the handle, a three-position clip allows you to carry the knife blade-up or blade-down on either its left or right side, and you can secure it to a backpack or jacket using a bit of cord and the frame loop at one end.
The Misdirect has been racking up glowing reviews left and right. One shopper called it "the perfect EDC knife" and said it "checks all of the boxes, adding, "All in all, it's the best form-factor of any EDC-type knife I've owned."
Another shopper called the Misdirect an "amazing knife for the price" and said it's "very sturdy" and cut "like a sailboat cutting through waves."
"I loved the feel of this knife. It is slim with enough heft to feel like a solid work tool," they added.
It might sound like a tired saying, but it's true: A pocket knife really does have a million uses, especially when it's as well-made as the Kershaw Misdirect. And at just $28, it's a standout bargain, too. But don't wait around to put this handy folding blade in your pocket. Like all Amazon deals, there's no telling how long this discount will last—grab one while prices are low.
